Today was a busy day, I was out and about with my daughter visiting my niece and her two adorable children.

After begging my sister for her car, we took another lovely scenic drive through the Durham region and of course, me being me, I had to get lost at least once.

Luckily, we didn’t get too far before I realized that we were going the wrong way, so we turned around and got to our destination just 15 minutes late.

After spending a lovely time catching up with my niece, my daughter and I got back in the car and decided to buy some flowers and pay a visit to my parents’ grave.

Since I live in Italy, I don’t get to go to the cemetery and visit them that often, so when I do come to Toronto I make sure I stop by at least once.

Going to see my parents reminded me of the great roast pork my mom used to make and that’s why I’ve decided to share this recipe with you today.

My father was always the meat and potatoes kind of guy, so I decided to spice up the pork roast a bit with some Italian spices and add some delicious roasted potatoes. This Roast pork is a perfect Sunday family dinner or get together dish. Buon Appetito!
